One Thousand Nine Hundred and Thirty-Seven The Most Troublesome Satellite

A few days later, Titan.

The Lone Wolf slowly wandered away from a safe distance, and the observation equipment on the ship was always pointed at this mysterious satellite, observing it uninterrupted for twenty-four hours.

It's not that Ye Han is wasting time here, it's that he has to do this.

As we all know, Titan is the largest satellite of Saturn and the second largest satellite in the solar system, only slightly smaller than Ganymede.

The special thing about Titan is that it has a real atmosphere. The surface pressure is higher than that of the Earth, which is 1.5 times the standard pressure!

This satellite is the absolute difficulty of the Lone Wolf mission - at first glance, the difficulty seems to come from the diameter and mass of the satellite itself. If you want to completely explode such a satellite, the super nuclear bomb required is astronomical. Otherwise, it is astronomical. , it is impossible for those few satellites of Jupiter to remain until now.

But in fact, that's not the case at all. The difficulty in blasting Titan is actually its atmosphere!

To put it bluntly, it is very simple. Other satellites have no atmosphere. Earth-penetrating bombs can directly reach the satellite surface at the highest speed. But Titan is different. Earth-penetrating bombs must first withstand the test of the atmosphere before they can fall to the ground. In this process , the speed and quality of the ground-penetrating projectile are both reduced, and it is considered good if only one-third of the final landing power is left.

A nuclear bomb must be detonated deep in the earth's crust to achieve the best blasting effect. If it can only be detonated on the surface of a satellite, at least several times the number of nuclear bombs will be needed to achieve the same effect.

Although Beiyuezhou handed over all the nuclear bombs to the Lone Wolf, Ye Han never planned to waste one more.

The military also had a headache over this, and convened a group of think tanks to work together, and finally came to the conclusion that the best way to bomb Titan was to land directly on Titan, use drilling equipment to drill holes in the ground, and then place nuclear bombs!

The advantage of the Lone Wolf lies in its super maneuverability and super long range. Not to mention landing on Titan, even getting close to Titan means giving up the advantage to attack short and long. The military will never allow this kind of danger. Super battleship situation.

To this end, the military tried every means and finally came up with a suitable plan, preparing several landing craft for the Lone Wolf to land on Titan and drill in to place nuclear bombs.

The reason why Ye Han spent a whole day observing Titan was to determine the situation on Titan!

However, after this period of observation, Ye Han has realized that simple observation will not have any effect. He is very hesitant, but the task must be carried out.

Gritting his teeth, Ye Han finally made up his mind: "Han Libo, pick up Yu Jing for me!"

"Yes!" Han Libo agreed, and Yu Jing immediately appeared on the screen in front of Ye Han, saluting: "Captain!"

Ye Han said: "Yu Jing, we don't have much time, we must land on Titan as soon as possible... Your mission is very dangerous, I will protect you with all my strength!"

"Captain, don't worry, we are all ready." Yu Jing said calmly.

There is no need to say what preparations to make, everyone knows in their hearts.

Ye Han felt sad and said loudly: "Be careful, come back alive!"

"Yes!" Yu Jing agreed and cut off the communication after saluting.

Ye Han took a deep breath: "Attention everyone, the Marines will leave the ship immediately. All units will provide full cover!"

The order was given, and the three landing craft specially designed for this mission under the ship detached one by one and flew to Titan in a line.

There is a safe distance of more than 20,000 kilometers between Lone Wolf and Titan, and it will take some time for these landing craft to arrive.

Satellites originally used to monitor Titan have also begun to focus on landing areas to prevent aliens from setting traps.

A few minutes later, the formation approached Titan and the three landing craft began flying around the satellite.

The formation was the first to approach landing point No. 1. Boat No. 1 adjusted its posture in advance, with its tail forward and head back, its back, lower abdomen, and upside down as it fell into the atmosphere.

After entering the atmosphere, the propeller at the stern of the boat was turned on briefly to decelerate the landing craft. Soon after, the landing craft adjusted its attitude again, pointing the belly forward, using air resistance to continue decelerating the landing craft.

At this time, landing craft No. 2 also entered the atmosphere using the same procedure, and then Landing Craft No. 3.

As the landing craft fell into Titan, the atmosphere on the Lone Wolf became increasingly tense. All the cannons on the ship were opened, and they would fire as soon as there were traces of aliens on the ground.

The speed of the landing craft became slower and slower. Until Yu Jing thought that the speed was almost the same, he started the equipment on the boat. A pair of long and narrow wings protruded from both sides. The landing craft then slid towards the landing area like an ordinary airplane. .

There is no airport to land here, so each landing point is chosen on a particularly flat ground. Anyway, the placement of nuclear bombs does not require particularly strict positioning, as long as the depth is up to standard, there will be no problem.

Soon after, the No. 2 landing craft took the lead in landing. Although the process was a little thrilling, there was no problem with the landing craft.

The parked landing craft opened the tail hatch, and a drilling vehicle specially used for drilling holes drove out.

The soldiers in the boat also dragged the cables out, found a place that looked pleasing to the eye, stopped the car, put up the drill pipe and started drilling holes... The digging end of the drill pipe was not an ordinary drill bit, but a high-power laser. .

The power of this thing is higher than the laser on the battleship. When working, it consumes a lot of electricity every moment. In order to provide enough power for this thing, each landing craft has a small nuclear reactor.

The drill starts, and the laser immediately vaporizes the ice shell on the ground... Everyone doesn't know what the hard ground is frozen into, but the laser can penetrate it anyway.

Two people were left watching the drill, while the others quickly dispersed their vigilance.

If the aliens come over, they will definitely not be able to stop the alien impact. The so-called warning is just to buy a little more time.

Boat No. 1 and Boat No. 3 went equally smoothly. The three drilling rigs started working at three different locations at the same time. As long as the depth of the tunnel reaches the standard, they will immediately rush to the next mission coordinates and repeat the process.

Seeing the landing craft landing safely, Ye Han finally felt relieved a little, but only a little. If the landing force didn't withdraw for a minute, he wouldn't be able to completely let go.

I originally thought that the landing force would encounter obstruction from aliens, but after waiting for more than ten minutes, there was no movement.

This period of time is enough for the aliens to assemble their troops, but there is no movement at all on Titan!

Ye Han was very confused. Is it possible that there are no aliens on Titan?

That is simply impossible. Titan is the most suitable Saturn satellite for the development of aliens. How could aliens abandon it?

The shaft became deeper and deeper amid doubts, and finally reached the predetermined depth after a few hours, but there was still no movement from the aliens, which made Ye Han feel suspicious for a while.

He couldn't help but sigh. When the aliens came out, they thought they were troublesome, but if they didn't come out, they felt unsure. What the hell is wrong with this? Carapace Mania
